TIL - cool, makes sense.

It would make sense if we had a server that could fetch prices instead of opening up potential weak systems to the internet.

Bought “smart” LG fridge, range and dishwasher a couple of years ago and never connected any of them, they function like they are supposed to, refrigerate, heat food and clean dirty dishes. No need to connect.

Fridge manual explained something like “in case of peak energy consumption your smart energy company can send a signal to your fridge to not use power”. What the heck do I need that for? To find spoiled food and mold growing in the fridge later on?

Why does one need to connect a range to WiFi?

WTF is a "UE" error?

User Error, as always /s

It’s smart not to connect “smart” devices

The smart people don’t connect these “smart” devices to the network

True that too. It is a knee jerk reaction against who is there on the administration today. Same knee jerk reaction that got a person incapable of forming a coherent sentence elected because he was not black or not a woman.

3rd party has as much chance this election as any other in the past. Consider that when casting you’re vote and pick one of the two parties.

I hate that you are likely right about it.

I wanted you to be so wrong, but yet it pains me: I believe you to be so right about it.

You are so right! That is the painful part that no one talks about! Took me a few days to get paperless-ngx working, because I had wrong firewall and port settings preventing docker containers communicating with each other. Once solved that I was proud and relieved - started scanning and categorizing - but in hindsight that was nothing compared to the amount of work to move stuff to it. I finally accepted that I will just have to keep doing that when I feel like it… which for the past months has been “never”. I now only put new docs in, but the older stuff is still sitting in nas folders.

You are right, it is not a gun control issue, it is a gun culture problem.

“

By this logic people that don’t know how to drive vehicles shouldn’t be using transportation in the first place. Right…right?!

Remember: “Alternate reality”

“You are lucky to have a job!”

Oh Geez, you guys aren’t really thinking about the shareholders… /s

Brilliant! Could be a Monty Python skit!

Same here. Does not make a difference, and it is amazing that people’s egos are hurt or happy about it somehow. But upvotes and downvotes is what drives all other social media: egos want more likes, more subscribes, more “friends”, they want that tribal approval. I find the fediverse to be less infected with FOMO. Drama doesn’t go long around here, doesn’t stick because there are no stupid algorithms feeding more FUD. I am starting to believe that this is where the top 1% of the social media hang out and chill. Here there are people that stick around for interesting conversations as opposed to “look at me”.

The age component is absolutely a reason and so is the leverage of the community and friends like you said. No doubt about it. It’s herd mentality and FOMO. Finally it is also how easy to get in and stay sucked in. These other platforms have the dopamine trigger game figured out on their apps. Fediverse doesn’t have that so much, other than the organic “did someone reply to me?” feeling. If you don’t engage then fediverse is not pulling you in.
